The Hand That Rocks the Cradle
Directed by Curtis Hanson
A suburban family chooses seemingly sweet Peyton Flanders as their newborn's nanny. Only much later does the infant's mother, Claire Bartel, realize Peyton's true intentions -- to destroy Claire and replace her in the family. The nail-biting suspense builds quickly in this chilling psychological thriller about deception and bitter revenge. From TMDB

60 of 199 · most liked firstMary Elizabeth Winstead is so beautiful when made up to look uniquely pretty (eg Death Proof, Scott Pilgrim, Fargo series) Then I see her in the Hand That Rocks The Cradle remake and she’s made to look homely and ordinary and damn it she’s STILL so beautiful

negative · AI labelView post →With a remake of "The Hand That Rocks The Cradle" set to get underway, we can't help but notice how societal fears of the early 1990s reflected in the original film are being stoked again today. #horror #nerdhorror #horrorsky #horrorcrypt #horrorcommunity
